Cultivating immortality is going against the grain

Luo Mingming widened his eyes and said, "Why do you say that?"

Hui Dabao said, "Uncle Luo, think about it, Jude Lu has been privately mining brine mines for so long and has always been at peace with the Gan family. However, since Nangong Wu came to Yueyang Prefecture three years ago, Jude Lu The sudden attack on the Gan family shows that there has been a change in the Qiu family..."

Gan Jujian said, "Change? What change... I haven't seen any other movement in Qiu Mansion!"

Hui Dabao said, "That's because Uncle Gan, you are still here!"

Gan Ju Jianlu stroked her beard, seemingly lost in thought...

Hui Dabao then said, "Uncle Luo, last time you explained to me why Nangong Wu came to Yueyang State...do you remember?"

Luo Mingming nodded.

Hui Dabao said, "If that's the case...what does Nangong Wu lack most now?"

Luo Mingming was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Lack of military pay... Could it be that he..."

Hui Dabao nodded and said, "Yes, what Nangong Wu needs most when recruiting troops is military pay. He wants to raise military pay... Brine mines are the best way... Originally, Qiu Jiabao mined brine to make salt and sold it, which must have been a good profit. Qiu De Lu was very satisfied, so the Gan family and the Qiu family have been living in peace and harmony in the past few years. However, now that Nangong Wu has come, the profit will definitely not be enough to recruit troops, so the mining scale can only be expanded. However, the Gan family drug store happens to be located in the mine. A large number of people come to the medicine shop every day, and if the scale of brine mining is expanded, the news will definitely leak out, and if it reaches the ears of the court, it will probably be difficult to end it, so they want to drive the Gan family away!"

Luo Mingming said with a serious face, "If you guess that, then Jude Lu has already joined Nangong Wu!"

He waved Dabao and said, "Not only Jude Lu... but also Lord Nie..."

"Master Nie? Impossible... The Nie family is the only family among the four major families that openly supports Emperor Wen. As a descendant of the Nie family, how can Master Nie possibly make peace with Nangong Wu!"

Luo Mingming shook his head repeatedly.

Hui Dabao looked confused and murmured, "Oh? Could it be that you guessed it wrong? However, if Master Nie had not joined Nangong Wu... how could Nangong Wu be so grand in Yueyang Prefecture..."

Luo Mingming said, "Nangong Wu is the royal family after all... Master Nie must not dare to interfere easily due to his status. Furthermore, Dabao, you may have guessed wrong. The matter may not be so complicated. It may be that Jude Lu is greedy and wants to Expand the scale of mining!”

Hui Dabao shook his head and said, "No... If you just guess, you may be wrong. However, I found physical evidence..."

Luo Mingming said, "What kind of physical evidence?"

Hui Dabao said, "It's that Kudzu leaf petal... I found it from Luan Ying!"

Luo Mingming said, "What? There are kudzu flowers on Luan Ying's body!"

Hui Dabao nodded and said, "Yes, I have fought against Luan Ying. His cultivation level is very high. With the status of the Qiu family, it is impossible to win him over. I guess he is from Nangong Wu..."

Luo Mingming stroked his beard and said, "Is it really as you guess... That would be too troublesome!"

Gan Jujian said, "Yes, then why are we still occupying the house? Isn't this the crater of a volcano? We will be shattered to pieces at any time!"

Hui Dabao had a wry smile on his face….

Luo Mingming looked at Hui Dabao in confusion and said, "Since you have guessed that Nangong Wu is related to this matter, why don't you just sell the house? If you keep it now, wouldn't it become a hot potato?"

Hui Dabao sighed and said, "I wasn't sure at first, so I came back and deliberately exposed the petals of kudzu leaves to test Nangong Wu. If it was really related to him, I planned to bargain with him and sell the house in exchange for our safety, but, Who would have thought that Nangong Wu made it clear directly without giving any chance to bargain..."

Luo Mingming said, "In exchange for safety? Dabao, do you mean that Nangong Wu has murderous intentions?"

Hui Dabao said, "I guess so...Uncle Gan, is there something about the brine mine here? Only the Gan family and the Qiu family know about it?"

Gan Jujian said, "Yes...the Qiu family mines brine to make salt and sell it, and I only collect some brine every day to make medicine...outsiders don't know!"

Hui Dabao said, "That makes sense. Nangong Wu ordered Luan Ying to kill me... They have already planned the rest. When the Gan family sells the house, they will kill and silence me!"

Gan Jujian was shocked, "They are so cruel... But... aren't they doing this in vain... Isn't it more straightforward to kill people and silence them? Why buy a house first and then kill people and silence them?"

Luo Mingming sighed, "Because, if they directly kill people and silence them, it will be a major criminal case. The Ministry of Punishment will definitely intervene, and the matter will be very big. More importantly, if the Gan family is exterminated, their family property will be lost to relatives." Inherit, or be confiscated by the court, so it will be more difficult for them to get the Gan family house!"

Hui Dabao continued, "That's why they will buy the house first, wait until the house is transferred to the Qiu family, and then silence them. This will not happen... Moreover, they can release the news that the Gan family sold the house for a lot of money." , murders caused by robbers seeking money, such murders are rare and common, and will not cause uproar in the city...it will soon subside!"

Gan Jujian said worriedly, "What should we do now..."

Luo Mingming said, "There is only one way now, that is, I will go to Nangong Wu and Master Nie now and give them the house without paying a penny. I promise them that the matter of the brine mine will never be revealed..."

Hui Dabao shook his head and said, "Uncle... No, even if we give the house to them for free now, they will not let us go. What Nangong Wu wants to do... is not a small fight. He will definitely not tolerate it. The loss is big, so killing and silence is the safest way!"

Luo Mingming said angrily, "Is there really no room for recovery... If this is really going to happen... the fish will die and the net will be broken. At worst, I will report to the court that a brine mine was found here..."

Hui Dabao said, "Uncle, you are right...this is indeed a good idea!"

Luo Mingming wondered, "What kind of good idea is this? It's just a lose-lose strategy. If the secret of the brine mine is revealed, Nangong Wu will definitely not let us go!"

Hui Dabao smiled and said, "Uncle, you are wrong. Nangong Wu is most afraid of making things bigger. As long as we spread the news about the brine mine, it will definitely spread all over the city. By then, Nangong Wu and the others want to occupy the brine again. The mine will be difficult to realize. If so, Nangong Wu will not be able to recover any losses if he kills us. Nangong Wu is a generational hero with great ambition. He will definitely not take the risk to do anything without any profit, so even if he No matter how much he hates us, killing and silence will probably not be his first priority... On the contrary, we will be safer..."

Luo Mingming stroked his beard and said, "What you say makes sense, but when people are angry, they will definitely do irrational things. Therefore, we cannot completely rely on Nangong Wu's character. It is best to , the news about the brine mine spreads, and then you escape Yueyang State. In this way, although Nangong Wu wants to kill people to vent his hatred, it will not do him any good, and he will have to spend energy and cost to find you all over the world. The price It will be bigger, I guess he will definitely not be so impulsive..."

Hui Dabao said, "Uncle is still thoughtful, Uncle Gan, we have to escape Yueyang Prefecture..."
